Abstract:
A device for determining the density of volumes of material to be imaged is provided, the device comprising a gas detector having first and second chambers separated by a micro-screen, making it possible to detect a stream of ionising particles, to calculate the path of each ionising particle and the stream of ionising particles passing through the first chamber, and comprising computing means for converting the calculations of paths and streams into information on the volume density of the material to be imaged.
